I have two versions of Basic.System v1.5. but there is totally different code in them. One was created in 1988 and the other in 1991. The 1991 version seems to have code that seems to support GSOS.

Was an updated version released with GSOS but kept the same version number?

Odd. 1988 sounds more like 1.2 (i.e., the version from *ProDOS* 1.5).

-uso.

I downloaded BS versions 1.2 and 1.3 and compared them to the 1988 v1.5.

There were a lot of similarities to v1.2 with code being in the exact same place. But there were still a lot of changes made to the 1988 v1.5 I have which indicates I may have picked up a modified v1.2 that had been renamed to version 1.5.

In comparison, v1.3 had no groups of code in the same place as the 1988 v1.5 or v1.2.

Thanks

Rob
